Did anyone see Dead Ringers on BBC2 earlier.<BR>Now I know that I sound like a whinging, obsessed geek but the LOTR sketch annoyed me.<P>It went something like this<BR>Saruman is in Orthanc holding the Ring<BR>S: At last I have the Ring which will allow me to dominate Middle Earth for ever<BR>Suddenly Gandalf the White appears<BR>G:Not so fast Saruman<BR>S: But, how? You're dead.<BR>G: It is true Gandalf the Grey fell battling the Balrog but I am Gandalf the White.<BR>S:But you cant just come back to life because you're a slightly different colour<BR>G:Of course I can, it's a fantasy film.<BR>S:Well what if I do this <BR>Saruman zaps Gandalf with lightning<BR>Gandalf dies then comes back as Gandalf the tartan<BR>G:You can't kill me Saruman, I have an entire Dulux colour brochure<BR>Scene switches to Crimewatch<BR>Presenter: If you have been in the cinema in the past twelve months you may have noticed the drastic rise in implausable film scripts.<BR>This was followed by a half dozen sketches with dead tv personalities coming back in white versions<P>Well i'm having my rant but i've got to say this is a poor show being pathetic
